Next/13/Replace Next Router

migration

Since Next.js 13.4, you can use the following hooks from the next/navigation module:

  • useRouter,
  • useSearchParams,
  • usePathname,
  • useParams.

These hooks replace the functionality available in the useRouter hook in the next/hook module, however, the behavior is distinct.

This codemod allows you to migrate the useRouter hook to the new useRouter hook imported from next/navigation. This includes all usages of the useRouter hook which may be replaced with useSearchParams and usePathname.

Example

Before

import { useRouter } from 'next/router';
function Component() {
const { query } = useRouter();
const { a, b, c } = query;
}

After

import { useParams, useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation';
import { useCallback } from 'react';
function Component() {
const params = useParams();
const searchParams = useSearchParams();
const getParam = useCallback(
(p: string) => params?.[p] ?? searchParams?.get(p),
[params, searchParams],
);
const a = getParam('a');
const b = getParam('b');
const c = getParam('c');
}
